Hi, Well done on reaching 9 days.... I think its to do with all the bad things in the cigs... when I gave up before, my teeth and gums became tender and really sensitive, they also bled... My dentist said it was to do with my teeth improving and said that they were just settling down again. It passed with me and my gums really improved, unfortunately I started smoking again. This time my teeth are very sensitive but hopefully will have settled down before my next appointment in July... :)
